Wittekerke Wit is easy to recognize by the elegant glass it is served in, its sunny colour and creamy foam head. The taste is nicely rounded with a well-defined herbal bitterness. The late famous beer expert Michael Jackson described Wittekerke Wit as creamy, aromatic, with a clean, teasing, perfumed fruitiness and a faintly herbal tartness.

Can courtesy of Okbeer: Poured a golden yellow color ale with some small white hue and a medium size pure white foamy head with good retention. Aroma of wheat and some light coriander. Taste is also dominated by some light wheat with some commendable spice mix in which coriander dominates. Body is a bit light with too much filtration with some adequate carbonation.

Pale yellow cloudy liquid topped with a bright white head that thins out quickly. Clean fresh taste. Not too sharp, not too sweet. A little spicy but overall quite light on flavour. Very refreshing and thirst quenching white beer.

Perfect balance of strawberries, cream, lemon, and thistle. Color is mesmerizing cream to dingy yellow, cloudy, thin snow white head, good lacing. Watery mouthfeel. Lemon and coriander flavor, almost minty. Turnip finish, a bit medicny, but not unpleasant. Should go very well with grilled chicken or a pasta salad. A very special and drinkable witbier.

Unclear, pale colour, white foamy head. Aromas of citrus and/or lemon. Lacks bitterness, drinkable though. Nice smooth aftertaste turning quickly in a watery, but pleasant taste. Nice witbier.

bottle - Pours hazy yellow with fine carbonation forming a medium sized head. It smells yeasty with lots of citrus. The flavor is light with citrus and maybe some banana notes. Itβs straightforward and refreshing, nothing exciting, but not bad either.

Interesting hint of yeasty lemon aroma. Looks like pale lemon-ade. Precipitants & stuff settled in the bottom of my steeler mug. Decent flavor without any bitter finish. Seems very refined, tho unfiltered.

Canned. Hazy yellow colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is wheat and some weak fruits, and a bit dishwatery. Flavour is wheat, acidic citrus and orange. Also some yeast in finish. OK, but nothing very different...

Murky whiteish yellow with small fast dissapating head. Smell is spicy and wheaty. Spicy dry citrus taste that is replaced with a wheaty finish.

Good Belgian white. Cloudy white color, with nice white head. Aroma of spices and banana. Taste of citrus. Nice finish, and seems to be a lot like a wheat beer more than a belgian white.
